Senior HVAC Controls Technician
Jacksonville, FL
W.W. Gay Mechanical Controls & Integration is expanding and looking for a Senior HVAC Controls Technician who wants to own projects, solve complex problems, and be trusted as the technical lead in the field.
If you’re an experienced BAS professional who’s tired of being micromanaged, underpaid, or stuck doing the same repetitive work, this role is designed for you.
Why This Role Is Different
- Pay, based on experience and skills assessment
- Company service vehicle with take-home use
- Local work — no constant overnight travel
- Strong project management and engineering support
- Real autonomy in the field — you’re trusted to make decisions
- Manufacturer training and long-term career growth
- Stable workload backed by a respected mechanical contractor
Technology You’ll Work With
You’ll work hands-on with modern BAS platforms, including:
- Tridium Niagara AX / N4
- Honeywell WEBs
- KMC Controls
- JCI FX
(Experience with all platforms is not required — strong proficiency in the industry is sufficient.)
Your Role
As a Senior Controls Technician, you will serve as the technical lead on assigned projects, responsible for delivering high-quality BAS installations from start-up through turnover.
Your responsibilities include:
- Field programming and system start-up
- Commissioning and functional testing under live and simulated conditions
- Verifying sequences of operation and system performance
- Graphics and front-end installation, testing, and client training
- Troubleshooting and making real-world programming adjustments
- Coordinating with project managers, technicians, and clients
- Producing clean documentation, as-builts, and checkout sheets
- Supporting warranty calls as needed
You’ll work with minimal supervision while having access to management and engineering support when needed.
What Success Looks Like
Within your first few months, you’ll:
- Confidently start up and commission assigned BAS systems
- Identify and resolve field issues independently
- Deliver projects that meet or exceed sequence and performance expectations
- Build trust with PMs, clients, and fellow technicians
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of experience in HVAC/DDC/BAS controls
- Strong understanding of HVAC systems and control strategies
- Proven experience programming, commissioning, and troubleshooting
- Ability to read wiring diagrams, control drawings, and sequences
- Professional, organized, and reliable on active construction sites
- Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record
